If the kernel couldn't allocate memory because we reached the maximum
number of chunks but no render passes are in flight
(panthor_heap_grow() returning -ENOMEM), we should defer the OOM
handling to the FW by returning a NULL chunk. The FW will then call
the tiler OOM exception handler, which is supposed to implement
incremental rendering (execute an intermediate fragment job to flush
the pending primitives, release the tiler memory that was used to
store those primitives, and start over from where it stopped).

Instead of checking for both ENOMEM and EBUSY, make panthor_heap_grow()
return ENOMEM no matter the reason of this allocation failure, the FW
doesn't care anyway.

v3:
- Add R-bs

v2:
- Make panthor_heap_grow() return -ENOMEM for all kind of allocation
  failures
- Document the panthor_heap_grow() semantics
